    well if you have never played bass before or any instrument, that seems like a good deal. kits usally arent good, they are bad quality, but if u are just starting out thats good. i play guitar, and i would never buy a kit

    Yea thats what I learned from my sister^ She got a kit to start off.. She said it sucked especially cuz she had to use a 10 wattamp for a while untill last year when she got a new bigger one... So yea I'm kinda skeptical about kits...

    btw any clue if a bass can work on my sisters old guitar amp? no big difference really its just that idk if the quality of it would get screwed or it wouldnt work right cuz how low the bass it..

    I suggest buying seperately, get a decent amp, you can use them for a while, even if you decide to get a better one in the future, you can still hook up multiple amps for auxilery.

    as for the guitar, i know little of guiars, but any instrument that is only 150$ isn't likely to be all that great, it may be good for the price, but savings often come at a price if you get what I mean.
